Bug description:
  Setup:
  Pike neutron 11.0.2-0ubuntu1.1~cloud0
  OVS 2.8.0
  Jumbo frames setttings per: 
https://docs.openstack.org/mitaka/networking-guide/config-mtu.html
  global_physnet_mtu = 9000
  path_mtu = 9000

  Symptoms:
  gre_sys MTU is 1472
  Instances with MTUs > 1500 fail to communicate across GRE

  Temporary Workaround:
  ifconfig gre_sys MTU 9000
  Note: When ovs rebuilds tunnels, such as on a restart, gre_sys MTU is set 
back to default 1472.

  Note: downgrading from OVS 2.8.0 to 2.6.1 resolves the issue.

  Previous behavior:
  With Ocata or Pike and OVS 2.6.x
  gre_sys MTU defaults to 65490
  It remains at 65490 through restarts.

  This may be related to some combination of the following changes in OVS which 
seem to imply MTUs must be set in the ovs database for tunnel interfaces and 
patches:
